functions and thickening the skin. HGH supports better and restful
sleep. Studies show that ornithine alpha-ketoglutaric acid can enhance
protein utilization and synthesis, improve glucose tolerance and
stimulate aerobic metabolism.
COLOSTRUM
Colostrum is the pre-milk liquid produced by the mammary gland during
the first 24-48 hours after birth. Colostrum strengthens the body's
immune system. According to research conducted by the Government
Center for Disease, doctors report that Colostrum users benefit
by enhanced well being, energy, and stamina, as well as a lower
incidence of sickness, flu, sinus,
and ear infections.
PHOSPHATIDYL SERINE
Phosphatidyl Serine plays an important role in maintaining the integrity
of brain cell membranes. The breakdown of brain cell membranes prevents
glucose and other nutrients from entering the cell. By protecting
the integrity of brain cell membranes, Phosphatidyl Serine facilitates
the efficient transport of energy-producing nutrients into cells,
thus enhancing brain cell energy metabolism. To date, eleven double
blind studies have been
completed using Phosphatidyl Serine in the treatment of age-related
cognitive decline, Alzheimer's disease, and depression. In the largest
study conducted by T. Cenacchi et al, reported in Aging 5 (1993):
123-33, four
hundred ninety four elderly patients with moderate to severe senility
were
given either Phosphatidyl Serine or a placebo for six months. The
patients
were assessed for mental performance, behavior, and mood at the
beginning
and end of the study. Statistically significant (p<0.01) improvements
were
noted in mental function, mood, and behavior in the Phosphatidyl
Serine -treated group. Other studies indicating the efficacy of
Phosphatidyl
Serine for anti-aging include: R.R. Engel et al. "Double Blind
Cross-Over
Study of Phophatidyl Serine vs. Placebo in Patients with Early Dementia
of
the Alzheimer Type." Eur Neuropsychopharmacol 2 (1992): 149-55
and T.H.
Crook et al., Effects of Phosphatidyl Serine in Age-Associated Memory
Impairment, Neurology 41 (1991): 644-9.
PHOSPHATIDYL CHOLINE
Phosphatidyl Choline, a main ingredient of Lecithin, and included
in Super
HGH is needed for proper mental functioning and fat breakdown. A
study
reported in Psychological Reports 1986 Feb Vol 58 (1) 207-217 suggested
that Phosphatidyl Choline supplementation improved neuro-physiological
and intellectual functioning as well as general motor- skill improvements.
TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS
Tribulus Terrestris, another component of Super HGH, is a non-hormonal
supplement derived from the herb, Tribulus terrestris commonly known
as the puncture vine. Tribulus is primarily found in parts of Eastern
Europe, India and Africa, where it has been used for hundreds of
years as a medical herb for the treatment of muscle strength, infertility,
impotence, liver, kidney, and heart problems. In South Africa it
has been used as a remedy for
inflammation and arthritis. In an article written by Dr. Robert
Fraser, "Tribulus Terrestris…a remarkable herb…"
published in Insight, March 1998, page 8, a cogent argument is made
for its use as a safe non-hormonal treatment for men and women.
The Chemical Pharmaceutical Institute in Sofia Bulgaria has led
the research in Tribulus. They discovered that Tribulus raises testosterone
production in men through the increased secretion of
Leutinizing Hormone from the pituitary gland, and in women, Follicle
Stimulating Hormone secretion and estrodial were increased. Tribulus
was also found to be superb for people with high cholesterol, as
it stimulates the bile flow and breakdown of fats in the liver thus
contributing to more regular bowel patterns and elimination of toxins
from the liver. Studies have concluded that there are no known side
effects from this herb when used
as a dietary supplement. Chromium GTF: A trace mineral that plays
a role in regulating blood sugar levels. Each "glucose tolerance
factor (GTF)" molecule, a hormone like compound, requires chromium
as its central atom. GTF works with insulin to
transport glucose from the blood into the cells. When this function
is not working properly, the cells resist insulin and do not properly
absorb the glucose needed for energyL-Arginine: Assists in wound
healing, facilitates immune function, and promotes the secretion
human growth hormone. L-Arginine works with L-Ornithine in the synthesis
of growth hormone
L-Ornithine: Some experts have
claimed that L-Ornithine promotes muscle-building activity in the
body.
L-Lysine: Stimulates growth hormone
release. An essential amino acid needed for growth; helps the body
effectively use fatty acids for energy production. Cannot be made
in the body and must be supplied by the diet or supplements. L-Lysine
appears to help the body absorb and conserve calcium.
L-Glutamine: The most prevalent
amino acid in muscle tissue. May help stimulate growth hormone.
L-Glutamine increases the absorption of nutrients and readily passes
the blood-brain barrier and is used as brain fuel in the form of
glutamic acid. It serves as a source of fuel for cells lining the
intestines. Without it, these cells waste away. Glutamine is effective
for boosting recovery after surgery or illness, due to increased
absorption of nutrients in the small intestine.Glutamine is also
used by white bloodcells
and is important for immune function, and helps decrease cravings
for alcohol and sugars, important factors in improved health.
Ornithine Alphaketoglutarate:
Or OKG, is formed from the amino acids ornithine and glutamine.
OKG is believed to enhance the bodys release of muscle-building
hormones, such as growth hormone and insulin, and increases arginine
and glutamine levels in muscle. OKG also encourages synthesis of
polyamine and helps prevent the breakdown of muscle while increasing
muscle growth. Alpha-ketoglutarate is one of the intermediary products
in the Krebs cycle.
L-Glysine: Used by the body
to build proteins. Participates in the body's
synthesis of purines, porphyrins, creatine, and glyoxylic acid.
Glycine may
play a role in maintaining the health of the prostate.
